Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era
Chapter 479: Is this Tao Zhiming credible?
Chapter 479 Is this Tao Zhiming credible?
Tao Zhiming on his honeymoon trip was leisurely and leisurely, but Haibe Jun, who had just stabilized his position in the official election in October, was in full swing and began to carry out the most important action.
Tao Zhiming mentioned the four-move chess, the first one has already begun to communicate his intentions.
Only Lin Qiyu, a quasi-doctorate in economics who finally defended, is now only a "non-staff employee" of the embassy, that is, a temporary worker. It would be great if she could assist with some reception and liaison work here, but because of her special status, she was invited to the ambassador's office on this day.
"Ambassador Yang, Counselor Wang." Lin Qiyu entered the door and stood there with a little doubt after greeting.
Then Wang Yi personally poured a cup of tea for her, which made Lin Qiyu a little scared.
"Xiao Lin, sit down." Yang Zhenhua smiled kindly, and when she saw her sitting down, he asked, "Xiao Lin, will you graduate in March next year?"
"Yes."
"Okay!" Yang Zhenhua said with a deep voice, "I heard that you have a firm determination to serve the country in your studies, and Xiao Wang and I both appreciate it. Xiao Lin, we have seen your performance in the past half a month. I have also reported to the leader that you are a high-end talent studying abroad. If you are willing to return to China, you will handle special cases. According to the talent introduction policy, the leader hopes that I can keep you in the ministry. What's your opinion?"
Lin Qiyu remembered what Tao Zhiming had analyzed about himself that day, and immediately replied: "As long as I can play my role, the state can assign me to any position."
Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi looked at each other, smiled and nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Okay, then I will arrange this later. According to the current policy, your personnel relations are linked to the department and you enjoy the treatment of deputy director level. At that time, after returning to China and training for three to six months, they will be assigned to the embassy in Neon, starting with the third secretary. After passing the assessment, they will be promoted to the second secretary who matches the rank. "
Lin Qiyu was a little apprehensive: "Leadership... I don't have much work experience now, so it's more suitable for me to start with the lowest-level attache or clerk?"
"Where is it! How many doctoral students are there in a year in the whole country? Not to mention a doctorate from the University of Tokyo!" Yang Zhenhua said earnestly, "Don't underestimate yourself. Besides, in terms of work experience, you worked as a secretary by Mr. Tao's side and participated in the internship during the internship. In the planning and supervision of many major projects in Tokyo and Kashima, we all believe that you can take up the heavy responsibility!"
Hearing that he mentioned Tao Zhiming, Lin Qiyu thought for a while, then just nodded lightly: "I will definitely live up to the trust of the organization!"
She answered in a good manner, Yang Zhenhua looked at Wang Yi, and the latter asked after consideration: "Xiao Lin, when you proposed yourself at the embassy, you said that Mr. Tao suggested you to come. Did he say anything else? ?"
"He said..." Lin Qiyu looked at the two leaders, and felt that Tao Zhiming's intention might be to let himself repeat one or two, so he paused and said, "He said, the current economic situation of Neon, even if it is purely from an academic point of view, It is also an excellent observation sample. He hopes that I can stay in Neon for a few more years. In the future, I will summarize the policies that Neon has launched in response to the current economic situation, and what experiences and lessons will be learned. "
It sounds like Tao Zhiming wants her to stay closer to him, but Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi naturally don't think much about it.
Yang Zhenhua thought about it and said, "To be honest, the leader also instructed our embassy in Neon, saying that we should establish direct contact with Mr. Tao naturally and reasonably, but do not create any obstacles to his overseas operations."
He took a deep look at Lin Qiyu again: "Since you were able to serve as secretary by his side, he suggested that you come to the embassy, which may have a deep meaning. The leader reminded me that about Mr. Tao, it was the Chuhai side. Specially decided."
Lin Qiyu was shocked and looked at the two in disbelief.
Hasn't Tao Zhiming been mainly developing his business outside the mainland? How can it directly attract the attention of the big people in the sea?
Yang Zhenhua took out a document from the side of the table and handed it over: "Now, we and Neon have restarted the aid and loan matters. This is the plan they gave. According to your current status, you should not have Look. But for special affairs, Neon clearly mentioned that there is a lot of work for Mr. Tao in the next step. Therefore, please help, what should Mr. Tao tell you before?"
Lin Qiyu was a little confused: "I haven't been in contact with Mr. Tao for almost a month... Besides, I haven't been reviewed by the organization yet..."
Wang Yi smiled gently: "Look, it's okay, this is just the first draft of the negotiation."
Lin Qiyu then stood up nervously, took the plan, and looked at it seriously.
The proposal was submitted by Neon, and naturally it was all Neon language. The content is about the method, amount and specific requirements of Neon's assistance and loan to Xia in the next three years.
The office was quiet, except for the sound of Lin Qiyu turning the pages of a book after a while.
Yang Zhenhua took a sip of tea, Wang Yi saw that his glass was empty, got up and went over to get a kettle and added some water for him.
The two of them waited quietly for Lin Qiyu to read it and express his opinion.
The country has changed from one economic system to exploring another path. Lin Qiyu studied abroad in Neon, and took finance and real estate as an entry point, and macroeconomics as a doctoral research topic. Talents are indeed very rare.
For more than half a month, although Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi just silently paid attention to Lin Qiyu's performance, the information about Lin Qiyu's files had already been reported to China for investigation.
is impeccable in all aspects, and it is rare to have a pure heart in this feasting Tokyo.
And Tao Zhiming... Although Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi didn't know why the chiefs in Shuhai trusted him, it only means that Tao Zhiming must have undertaken a very special mission.
What's more, Tanaka Eiji and Kaibu Jun came to the reception together, and then left together with Tao Zhiming. Later, Taro Hashimoto's secretary contacted Yang Zhenhua and bluntly stated that Tao Zhiming would serve as a special bridge between Neon and Xia to resume economic and trade exchanges.
Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi are puzzled that such a Xia Yi, who was born and raised in Neon, can reach such a level at such a young age.
Such a person cannot be arranged and supported by the chiefs, right?
And if he had no contact before, why did he get such trust?
After she read the plan, she sat there frowning and meditated, Yang Zhenhua said with a smile, "Boldly express your opinion. Even if Mr. Tao has not mentioned this aspect, you can rely on what you have learned to see if there will be any What will be the problem."
Lin Qiyu nodded slowly, and then asked first: "Leader, I checked the information. In the past ten years, after the establishment of diplomatic relations, Neon has already provided two batches of aid and loans to the Xia Kingdom, and the investment amount is not small. Is the plan the same as this time?"
"It's basically the same." Yang Zhenhua nodded earnestly, "In the past, more than 90% of the aid was in the form of loans. The provisions of the loan are that Xia Guo must introduce Neon equipment. Except for the free part, these loans are aid because Because of its nature, the interest is very low, and the repayment period is relatively long, 40 years, and there is a 10-year grace period where no interest is required.”
"In the past, it was also denominated in meter dollars?" Lin Qiyu actually gritted his teeth.
"Mi Yuan is an international currency, is there any problem here?"
Lin Qiyu recalled what he had learned from the books, and then thought about what he had realized under the influence of Tao Zhiming in the past few years, and sighed: "The problem is big. The first batch of loans will be two years later. Should I start paying it back?"
"That's right. The first batch of loans was 330.9 billion yen from 1979 to 1983. The second batch started in 1984 and now has 470 billion yen."
"...I'll do the math."
Lin Qiyu took out a pen from his pocket as soon as he stretched out his hand, which he actually carried with him, and then took out a small notebook.
While writing the plan on it, she said: "When borrowing, the loan was neon yen, but it was priced in meter dollars. But the first batch of borrowed 330.9 billion yen was the exchange rate between neon yen and meter dollars at that time. , the highest is more than 270:1, and the average is about 230. But now, the exchange rate of neon yen to meter yuan is only 140. That is to say, this kind of government development assistance ODA loan has a very low interest rate of only 1.5%. However, because of the exchange rate Change, this batch of borrowed time was less than 1.5 billion yuan, but when it was returned, it would cost about 3.5 billion yuan... Here we also need to consider the exchange rate between us and Mi yuan."
Lin Qiyu's teeth hurt more and more: "I remember that at that time we exchanged less than 2 yuan for 1 meter yuan, but now... it is nearly 6 yuan. So... we probably need three times the original amount to pay off this batch. loan…"
Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi looked at each other. In the end, Yang Zhenhua could only say silently: "The price of rice yuan is the usual standard for government development assistance loans. These loans have indeed helped domestic infrastructure construction and technology introduction, and promoted development. We The foundation, after all, is too thin."
Lin Qiyu was also silent. She didn't know whether anyone recognized the cost risk brought about by changes in the currency exchange rate when she signed these loan agreements, or because of the constraints at the time, she couldn't ask for more.
But now... she thought about it and said, "It's not just that. A considerable proportion of the loan projects require limited purchases from Neon. In this case, we may spend some more costs, and Neon's businesses have already made profits. Come back a batch. In addition, we are required to introduce neon equipment, but there are actually some problems..."
"You speak up!"
"In the past ten years, Neon's manufacturing capacity has actually been excess, and it is necessary to digest so many products through foreign markets. What we have introduced is only equipment, not real technology, but limited ourselves to Neon. In the production standard of Hong Kong, the manufacturing capacity of Neon has been increasing, and the domestic labor cost is also increasing. It is necessary to transfer some backward production capacity to optimize the economic structure. In the past ten years, many companies of Neon have been in We invest in Xiaguo for this reason.”
"We currently only have the advantages of sufficient manpower and low cost. We need to learn more advanced management models and introduce industries with higher added value. For them, it may be backward production capacity, for us..." Yang Zhenhua said here, Heart is quite helpless.
Lin Qiyu nodded immediately: "Of course I understand this. But I think we have to understand that Neon does this, and the loan to us is to make money through finance, to give Neon some overseas orders and new opportunities for overseas expansion, not Purely to help us. Since each has its own purpose, it should be able to be more... tough!"
"That is to say, your suggestion is to take into account the risk of exchange rate changes. Other conditions can also be contested."
"That's right. At least, the money borrowed and repaid, it is best to directly use meter dollars with a relatively stable exchange rate, rather than borrowing neon yen to pay back neon yen, but denominated in meter dollars. Neon yen is a short period of time. In more than four years, the appreciation has doubled, and the repayment amount has far exceeded the original expectations. The leaders must have realized it, and this can of course be used as a reason."
Yang Zhenhua smiled and nodded, then looked at Wang Yi and said, "Xiao Lin went abroad for further studies, so I didn't waste time."
"Indeed." Wang Yi also smiled, "Xiao Lin, do you have any other suggestions?"
"Yes." Lin Qiyu thought about it for a while, then said boldly, "The two batches of loans in the past will not be discussed, but these latter loans cannot continue to be in the form of projects we proposed and approved by Neon. According to my current Recognize...they are not aid loans, but investment. We can certainly continue to build some basic projects that are beneficial to trade between the two countries, but not all of them. Also..."
Since it was the first time that an official at this level had the opportunity to ask herself for advice, she simply opened up and said, "Although Neon has a lot of money now, it should take immediate measures to squeeze the water in the financial and real estate fields. After two or three years, Neon's capital will probably not have so much surplus to obtain income from abroad. So this time, I think it can be a little more! Of course, the premise is that we cannot unilaterally bear the exchange rate risk, at least Prescribe solutions when exchange rate risk is outside certain ranges!”
"Okay, I wrote it down." Since Lin Qiyu started to speak in an orderly manner, Yang Zhenhua had actually recorded her opinions in his notebook.
Lin Qiyu saw this and tore off the page he had just counted and handed it over: "Then... I won't disturb the work of the leaders."
Yang Zhenhua nodded with a smile, and Wang Yi added: "Xiao Lin, you have a personal relationship with Mr. Tao, so you don't need to avoid anything because you are working in the embassy. He has close contacts with the senior officials of the Neon Cabinet, you go and visit him, This kind of thing is also the normal work of our embassy."
Lin Qiyu will feel sorry: "Do you want me to ask him again for his opinion on these ODA loans?"
"I'm afraid he knows what to say when he sees you." Wang Yi sighed, "I suggest you come to the embassy. One of the functions should be here."
"…I understand."
Lin Qiyu nodded, and gave a somewhat excited salute before leaving, seeing Yang Zhenhua and Wang Yi laughing dumbly.
The room became quiet again. After a while, Yang Zhenhua looked at the content he recorded and sighed with the result she calculated, "He's a good boy."
Wang Yi pondered and asked, "This Tao Zhiming...is it really credible?"
"Little Wang!" Yang Zhenhua aggravated his tone, "The chiefs have instructed us, so we don't need to make extra arrangements."
Wang Yi sighed: "He got so close to the neon politicians that even the president of Citibank in the United States came to the wedding in person. Leader, you have also seen that foreigners take this market economy, finance, etc., I've been thinking about it for so many years. I'm really a little worried that we've fallen into some kind of pit unknowingly."
Yang Zhenhua stood up slowly, walked to the window and looked out, before saying for a long time, "You are the new generation that the leader specially sent to Neon during such a special period to focus on cultivating. Cross the river by feeling the stones. There are crocodiles, broken stones, broken glass, and the river can't be enough? We fight for opportunities and keep the bottom line. , let's do the tasks arranged by the superior first, and one day we will know!"
"...I understand." Wang Yi also stood up, and then said, "In this negotiation, apart from what Xiaolin said, we have to grasp a little bit. Regarding the attitude of the United States, how is Neon going to deal with it. We are in the United States. Comrades over there, any news?"
Yang Zhenhua turned his head and showed a strange expression: "Old Zhu said that the consortiums in the United States are lobbying to stop Neon's actions. But Neon is quite sure, where did they get their confidence? I hope we can convince the United States. ?"
